It will only be necessary to refer to the difference of form in 
the mandibles, the rounded lobe of the maxillae, and the dilated 
terminal joint of the palpi, to show that there is sufficient 
ground for separating this group from Clivina \pl. 175). 
The insect dissected was D.jfulvipes P and the following are 
British species. 
1. D. inermis Curtis's Brit. Ent . pi. 354. 
I have had a single specimen of this insect several years, 
but have no recollection where it was taken. It is the largest 
and stoutest of the genus, being two lines and a half long, and 
the anterior tibiae are not denticulated externally. The striae 
and six points are strongly marked, and the former are con- 
tinued to the apex. 
2. D. nitidusDe/. Spec . Col. 1. 421. 9. — aeratus Ste. Mr. Ha- 
liday thinks his specimens, captured on the banks of pools 
near Holywood in the county Down, are the same as 
D. nitidus : taken also in Yorkshire and Norfolk. 
3. D. politus Dej . 1. 422. 10. Norfolk and Suffolk. 
4. D. cylindricus Dej. 1. 423. 11. Norfolk; and under rub- 
bish on the sea-shore, Swansea, Mr. J. G. Jeffreys. 
5. D. aeneus Zieg. Dej. 1. 423. 12. Mr. Haliday near London, 
and Mr. Westwood on a dry bank at Walham-green, in 
June. 
6. D. punctatus Dej. 1. 424. 13. I took a single specimen in 
the Isle of Wight in August. 
7. D. pusillus? Dej. 1. 425. 15. My specimens are too large 
for Dejean’s insect. One I took in Norfolk the 8th July, 
the other was captured by the late Mr. E. Hobson 
on the sea-beach near Formby. 
8. D. fulvipes? Dej. 1. 425. 16. May, under the Cliff, Cove- 
hithe, Suffolk. 
9. D. thoracicus Fab. Dej. 426. 17. Taken with last. 
10. D. digitatus Dej. 427. 18. Taken with last. 
11. D. arenosus Lea. In the British Museum. 
12. D. rufipes? Dej. 428. 20. — tristis Ste. Beginning of Au- 
gust, coast of Solway Firth, Mr. Heysham, and Wim- 
bledon common, Mr. Ingpen. 
13. D. gibbus Fab. Dej. 428. 21. — remotus Mars. Inhabits 
moss in winter ; is common in moist places, Battersea 
fields in July; upon plants in ozier holts, Norfolk; 
under stones by the sea side, and about the sand hills, 
Swansea, L. W. Dillwyn, Esq. : edges of heaths near 
Carlisle, T. C. Heysham, Esq.; and near Belfast, 
A. H. Haliday, Esq.

latter dark towards the apex : legs castaneous : thorax with a transverse 
channel before, and an obscure one down the centre, deep at the base : 
elytra with eight punctured striae on each, vanishing at the apex : anterior 
tibiae terminated by two equal incurved spines. Smaller, narrower, and 
duller than D. gibbus , and the channel down the thorax and the punctures 
on the elytra are much fainter. Habitat with last. 
The plant is Bartsia viscosa (Viscous Bartsia).
